That sure is some piece! Very nice. I do hope Andrea releases some of the figures as individual.

This looks awesome. However I would like to see an open box review. I've done several of Andrea's big diorama's (The stage coach, The army chuck wagon, and the cowboy cookout to name a few) and they have all been extremely challenging for all the wrong reasons IMO. Poor fit, damaged and/or missing parts have all plagued the larger projects I've undertaken. So given the cost, and I can only imagine what it's going to cost, I would want to see the goods before parting with my money.

Roger Hurkmans did a scratch build of this recently based on same photo it looks like. Pretty nice.

An interesting diorama. The tank is a either a Mk I or possibly a Mk II male version with the tail wheels. When first used in action the effect was terrifying. The Germans were much more likely to be running away rather than crawling all over it. There are also a couple of Germans not wearing their helmets and the dead Tommy is also wearing a cap rather than a helmet. The early tanks were most unlikely to advance without infantry support. It would have made a pleasant change to see a British tank advancing with infantry support.

Not to nit pick but the picture doesn't really make sense. The tank is obviously stationary as there is a German lying on the track and another unflattened one behind the stabilizer. But it's on the parapet of the enemy trench where it's hard to see how it could have been ditched. All I can think is appalling timing for a mechanical breakdown. The execution looks to be superb but I wish manufacturers wouldn't think through the plausibility of the scenario a bit more fully.

The diorama is based on a famous image of the tank 'Fray Bentos' which was attacked at Passchendaele:

Fray Bentos

An outstanding set from Andrea.

This piece by Andrea is based on a painting by a WW I artist named Fortinino Matania . It's not supposed to be 100% accurate. He definitely took artistic license with the scene.

I wasn't aware if the original picture so my hat goes off to Andrea in executing this. The artist on the the other hand really should have come up with a more plausible scene (just kidding).

Where did you get price? And why 400 and 450?
